October 9, 2008 DeSagana Diop and Erick Dampier each played 18 minutes in the Mavericks' win over the Bulls on Thursday. The younger big man contributes eight rebounds and two blocks to go with three points.
Our View:Diop is not going to put any team over the top, but in deep roto-leagues he can be a boost to an owner's blocks and rebounds while shooting very good from the field.
July 9, 2008 DeSagana Diop has inked a deal with the Mavericks, according to the AP. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
Our View:He provides a big body to the Mavs at 7-0 280 pounds, but has been a bust since being selected as a lottery pick by Cleveland back in 2001, and isn't likely to break out in Dallas.
July 2, 2008 DeSagana Diop , traded by the Dallas Mavericks to the New Jersey Nets in February, is returning to his former team with an impressive new pay raise to boot, according to the Dallas Star-Telegram.
Our View:The 7-foot center agreed to a five-year contract with the Mavs on Wednesday and he is expected to sign on July 9 for the entire mid-level exception, expected to be around $5.5 million or more for the first season.
